“We have used Catherine Jackman’s illustrations as artwork for many of our recent family trails at National Trust Dunham Massey. Catherine’s beautiful style and attention to detail make her a joy to work with and we keep coming back again and again. Thank you!”

“Catherine is a truly remarkable artist, Illustrator, and businesswoman. She worked with the Arts In Libraries team on a demanding, complicated and ambitious picture book project. Her approach to the work was completely thorough – responding to a brief with top quality technical skill and delightful creativity. Her work is diligent, resourceful, collaborative, and of the very highest standard. She shows huge generosity to those people less experienced than herself, and is a role model of professionalism.”

“I’ve worked with Catherine Jackman for a number of years on several mini projects for the National Trust, including illustrations for trails, Christmas backdrops, and installations.
Catherine is a true creative, she is always able to bring my visions to life. Catherine is excellent at adapting to the needs of the project as well as actively making style suggestions that have added that extra special something to all of her pieces. We’ve always been happy to highly recommend Catherine as she’s a joy to work with.”

“Catherine illustrated my book so beautifully. She brought my story to life in a way that was more magical than I thought possible. I received so much feedback from people who bought the book, they spoke so highly about the illustrations, how visually stunning and enchanting they were.
Catherine listened, discussed, collaborated and carried out the project with such passion, care and attention to detail. She is a very gifted illustrator and I would work with her again in a heartbeat.”

“I have had the pleasure of working with Catherine Jackman on the illustration of the children’s book ‘A Dream Day at the Zoo’ written by Tom and Amy, zookeepers at The Welsh Mountain Zoo, to help raise funds for this animal conservation charity during the pandemic.
Catherine is a fantastic illustrator with a keen sense of storytelling visuals who is capable of interpreting, visualising, and creating the most beautiful concepts that truly bring a story to life.
It was an absolute pleasure working with Catherine on this project that is so close to my heart, and I would be honoured to have the opportunity to work with her again in future.”
